Review of The Laughing Idol of Lar-Shan

Product- Dungeon Crawl Classics Dying Earth #1: The Laughing Idol of Lar-Shann System- DCC RPG Producer- Goodman Games Price- $7 here https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/393055/Dungeon-Crawl-Classics-Dying-Earth-1-The-Laughing-Idol-of-LarShan?affiliate_id=658618 TL; DR-Solid adventure with a bit of crazy ending. 97%

Basics- Who wants a drink? Drawn to a small town where a particularly special liquor is made, you find a massive idol barking orders. Can you find the liquor before the idol counts down to... something?

Mechanics or Crunch- Ah first level Goodman Game scenarios! These guys know their mechanics, so everything is solidly done with the right amount of random and fun monsters to fight. My players and I all had a blast killing monsters, searching, and finding the secrets of the idol. 5/5

Theme or Fluff- Overall this is fun, but I feel the ending gets a bit off. There are a ton of fun in this adventure and has some crazy turns that are just perfect for the Dying Earth. There is one problem with the adventure. I won't spoil anything, but I feel like one enemy would not attack the players at the end. That said, if you run it how you want, it won't be a problem!. 4.5/5

Execution- PDF? Yep. Hyperlinked? Yep. Solid Art? Yep. Good layout? Yep! This is what I expect from a Goodman Games adventure. Solid work Goodman games! 5/5

Summary- Ah crazy Dying Earth fun. This with all the other adventures makes me want to read more Vance. I love the crunch and the design, but I have a few issues with the ending. That said, you write your own story as the Judge, so fix it on the fly! This is a solid adventure that I loved, and I think you will too! 97%
